You actually have a great idea there. I wonder if they truly tested the "null hypothesis" like you bring up.
There could even be an invented special "road" font that helps people further disambiguate it visually from all the other map labels.
- logicallee 8y agoThanks. It wasn't my idea. I literally tested the spec "whenever you zoom in enough that there's enough room on a visible street to put a label, then put the label!" I guess the person meant "on one spot" but since labels are frequently repeated I didn't see the harm of trying it out in the "worst" way possible. Still looks fantastic. Maybe it was misspecified but I did what it says and I think it's great. A light grey might help but then again it could be easier to ignore black you don't need than make out light grey you do.
